The Competence Centre is dedicated to promoting and researching the field of intellectual property.

In 2011 the website was relaunched with a focus on the journal “ipCompetence” that is published every six months by MANZ as a supplement to the Österreichische Blätter für gewerblichen Rechtsschutz und Urheberrecht (ÖBI, Austrian Gazette for Industrial Property and Copyright). The journal can be consulted online on the website.
The team at the Competence Centre for Intellectual Property have created a series of videos accompanied by slides that provide insights into the areas of trademark law, design law, patent law and copyright law.
checkpointmedia is responsible for the copywriting and technical implementation as well as the concept, graphics and content editing.
